After the party, the two went for a walk on the beach."She said, 'I just want to talk with you' and obviously he had other intentions," said Satellite Beach Police Commander Jeff Pearsons.The victim told police this January that Dowgialo raped her. Dowgialo doesn't deny bringing the 13-year-old girl to the beach. However, he denies raping her.Dowgialo could face life in prison for the alleged rape.
